*Description*
*************

This is a collection of our works over the past year and a half or so: The maps in here vary greatly in theme and style, we included 7 ctf maps, 3 deathmatch maps, and two qball maps-- that makes a grand total of 12 new maps. See the descriptions by map for more details. We really hope you all will enjoy these maps and appreciate our combined efforts. :)




*********************
*Descriptions by Map*
*********************

Arena of Slaughter (hm_aos)
A Rocket-Arena style Deathmatch map. Players start in a room where they pick up weapons, then transport out to battle in a different arena. Get ready to rumble gladiator!

Iota Station (ctf_iota)
A large map suitable for 16-player games, built from scratch. Two levels, one lower terrain and an upper water area, this map has a large fight area with many different ways to get to the other base. This map is suitable for fast-paced CTF games. Bot Support included, and it works great.

Octagon Compound (hm_octagon)
A Small FFA/DM/THM map. Bot Support included, but, it doesn't really work very good.

Overpowered Arena (hm_overpowered)
A little map made for FFA/Duels/ and small-teams CTF. It requires you to be on constant alert since the arena is small and there are lots of weapons and ammo. That's why this is an Overpowered Arena: there is no way to hide from the neverending action!

Overpowered Arena 2 (ctf_overpowered2)
A different-themed version of Overpowered, with two bases-- making for CTF play. Also great for THM, DM or FFA.

Polar Arena (hm_polar)
An Arctic-themed deathmatch flag, with a lot of eye candy which has never been seen in Elite Force before. The environment in this map nearly makes you get it really cold, make sure to wear warm clothes :P

Phi & Psi Stations (ctf_phi & ctf_psi)
Two big maps for 5v5 and more games; built for speed and action, these maps have very open arenas, providing for very interesting gameplay. One is S-shaped, the other is W-shaped.

Sea Faceoff (ctf_seafaceoff) & Sea Faceoff Qball (qb_seafaceoff)
This map is our crown jewel: it is an Andosian-themed CTF map with several levels. Players have to battle to get to the upper areas where the flag is located. The outer edges of the map have platforms where supporter players can help the attackers. We also included a qball version of this map and included the appropriate qball script. We worked for over 5 months on the original for the 1.3 patch, this is the reloaded version, everything has been remapped, all shaders totally rewritten, and a new skybox. The Reloaded version was mapped in a matter of days, and completed in a matter of a week or two. The reloaded version has much better FPS, Much better visdatasize and much better graphical enhancements.

Xi Station 2 (ctf_xi2)& Xi Station 2 Qball (qb_xi2)
This is my second map, I made this map alone (Johan made the screenshot and arena file though, I couldn't be bothered :P) this is a totally not-chronological production my first 5 maps ever were:
1) Omega Station 1.0
2) Xi Station 2.0
3) Omicron Station 1.0
4) Omega Station 1.1
5) Xi Station 1.0
It is a good map for CTF and Qball, the Bot Support works uber.
